What are the benefits of Mesotherapy over surgical techniques such as liposuction?

Liposuction does not treat cellulite and in fact often ends up, making the cellulite more prominent. Mesotherapy treats cellulite directly and the result is a smoother skin surface. Mesotherapy also spot reduces fat in specific areas, like “love handles”. The fat deposits flush out of specific areas and the body does not gain the weight back in other areas, which often happens after liposuction. Mesotherapy is a non-surgical procedure that does not require hospital admittance, general anesthesia, or downtime.

How Does Mesotherapy Work On Weight Loss & Spot Reduction

Mesotherapy can target specific areas or spots where your body stores excessive fat. The customized formulas injected in a specific area blocks the cells from storing fat and helps break the existing fat cells down. Your body then naturally flushes out the broken-down fat. Spot reduction can be used for double chins, love handles and any other area where your body pockets fat.

Will the results last?

The results do last! However, aging is a dynamic process. We cannot stop aging. As your body continues to age you will need to address the symptoms of aging as they manifest. Mesotherapy is used as a preventative against ravages of aging, as well.

Are the treatments painful?

Are there any side effects?

You may experience some bruising, which resolves over one week. To speed up the healing process, we can recommend the appropriate supplements such as Wobenzyme to be taken orally or topical ointments such as Traumeel to be applied to help decrease bruising.
